Also known as the Captain's Chair leg raise, it is the second most effective move for both the obliques and rectus abdominis.


Stand on the chair and grip the handholds to stabilize your upper body. Press your back against the pad and contract the abs to raise the legs and lift knees towards your chest. Slowly lower back down and repeat for 1-3 sets of 12-16 reps.

Do not swing your legs or use momentum to get your legs up. This can cause injury. If you keep your knees bent, you can focus more on the movement in the abdominals.
